Touchscreen to load files...

Post by SpacedmanSpiff »

Dear all I may have found a bug.
I am unable to utilize the touch screen to select files to load from the F2 screen. Is this known ? Or am I missing a setting ? Touch screen works normally otherwise.

All the best
Sean Trost.

Post a fresh report please. What happens when you attempt to load a file?

The fresh report will have to be tommorow.
I am unable to highlight a file via touchscreen in the F2 screen. It appears the touchscreen functionality is disabled in that area. I am however able to cursor around and choose files in that manner using the on screen keyboard.

Does F2-Load into a File Selection Menu within CNC12? With a list of files in the current directory? Or does it open up a windows dialogue box?
If it's the former, clicking the touchscreen won't do anything since if you were using a mouse, clicking with the mouse wouldn't work either! The only way to navigate the file selection menu is to use the keyboard.
If you want to have it open up a windows dialogue and navigate that with the touchscreen set parameter 4 to 8.
